Apple Offers Deal to Exchange Third-Party Chargers

In the wake of reports about safety issues associated with USB chargers made by other companies, Apple is offering to take in and dispose of third-party products.

Customers who turn them in at an Apple store can get an Apple-made charger for $10. “Recent reports have suggested that some counterfeit and third party adapters may not be designed properly and could result in safety issues,” the company wrote.
